Natural Organic Skin
Care
Back in the older day’s people did
not think of their skin care regimen to be a natural organic
skin care routine, because all skin care was natural and
organic. Sometimes akin care treatments from the past are the
best, not every man-made advancement is necessarily good or
healthy. Man-made products sometimes contain harsh chemicals or
ingredients that can do more harm than good, especially in the
long run. Think of the ancient Egyptian goddess Cleopatra, she
was known for her beautiful radiant skin and her skin care was
completely natural and organic. Luckily, the secrets of her
beauty and youthful skin still live today.
Egypt was known as the land of milk and honey. These two
products work wonders when on their own, but when put together
deliver even more stunning results. Both milk and honey contain
a high amount of antimicrobial and cleansing properties, which
are essential in having healthy, beautiful skin.
Acne
Acne is caused when bacteria gets into the pores of your
skin and blocks oxygen from letting your skin breathe. In order
for bacteria to survive and spread it needs water and nitrogen.
Honey is high in sugar content and low in acidity which
prevents bacteria from feeding on the things that are necessary
for it to survive. A honey-based natural organic skin care
ointment is a great way to treat minor cases of acne and wont
dry out your skin like some chemicals in store-bought products
do. In addition to the wonderful things already stated about
honey, it also absorbs any dirt and bacteria from your pores to
help prevent future flare-ups of acne.
You can easily make a honey cleanser by mixing together one
tablespoon of honey with two tablespoons of ground almonds and
½ a tablespoon of lemon juice. You first moisten your face, and
then rub the mixture on your face following with rinsing with
warm water. This is one of the simplest and best natural
organic skin care cleansers.
Moisturizer
Since the days of Cleopatra until today, milk and honey
mixtures have been an excellent source of natural organic skin
care, especially when it comes to moisturizing. The high
content of antioxidants in honey offer protection against
premature aging due to exposure to the sun and other elements
and in some cases even skin cancer.
Another reputable natural organic moisturizer to use in your
skin care routine simply requires mixing two tablespoons of
milk with two tablespoons of honey, then smooth the mixture
over your entire face, avoiding the eyes. Allow the mixture to
dry for about ten minutes, then rinse with warm water.
For an entire body moisturizing boost you can add ¼ cup
honey and ¼ cup milk to your warm bath and just relax in the
mixture and let it soak into your skin. You will love the way
your skin feels afterwards.
